1 | Why will God judge the church? | 1 Pet 4:17 | Radioman2 | 97386 | ||
Will God judge the church? And if so, why? Aren't we promised to be spared God's wrath in 1 Thessalonians 1:10 and 5:9? Aren't we told in Romans 8:1 that those who are in Christ Jesus are not subject to condemnation? What does the apostle Peter mean in 1 Peter 4:17? |

The Judgment seat of Christ is not in regards to His wrath (and hence, it does not result in condemnation). However, believers are judged based on the works we have done. (2 Cor 5:10) See also 1 Cor 3:10-15. 1 Peter seems to be speaking of a purification, so that the good stuff remains, and the bad stuff burns off. This sort of parallels 1 Cor 3. |
